Every session I offer is custom designed to help you feel confident, powerful, and wildly at home in your body.

No two experiences are the same.
​
No modeling experience required. Just show up as you are. I'll take care of the rest.
An Investment in You
Let’s talk about how your boudoir session works, because this is more than booking photos. It is about choosing an experience that fits where you are right now.
Your boudoir photography session is made up of two parts: the experience itself and the artwork you choose afterward. This keeps everything flexible and allows you to customize the experience without pressure.
The Experiences
The Full Boudoir Experience
This is the complete, fully guided experience. It is designed for clients who want to slow down, be taken care of, and really sink into the moment.
​
Your full boudoir session includes professional hair and makeup, access to the client closet and studio sets, multiple outfit changes, and detailed posing guidance from start to finish. You do not need to know how to pose or what to do. I will guide you through everything.
​
This session is longer, more relaxed, and allows time to explore different looks and moods. Plus you get exclusive bonus sets with collections. If you want the full transformation experience, this is it.
​
The Mini Boudoir Session Experience
Mini sessions are a great option if you are boudoir curious and want to test the experience before committing to a full session.
These sessions are shorter and more focused. They include guided posing and time in front of the camera, but they do not include professional hair and makeup or access to the client closet. You will arrive camera ready with one planned look.
Mini boudoir sessions are perfect if you want something fun, fast, and confidence boosting without the full-day experience.
The Biggest Differences at a Glance
A full boudoir session offers a slower pace, multiple looks, 2+ hours in front of the camera, professional hair and makeup, full access to the client closet, and a deeply immersive experience.
​
A mini boudoir session is quicker, more streamlined, and ideal for trying boudoir for the first time or creating a simple, intentional set of images. These sessions are up to 30 minutes compared to 2+ hours.
​
Both experiences include expert posing guidance and the same supportive, judgment-free environment. The difference is in time, styling, and how much you want to invest in the experience.
The Artwork
After your session, you will view your images and choose how you want to enjoy them. Some clients fall in love with albums, others choose wall art or digital images. You only purchase what you love.
​
This part happens after your session, once you have seen yourself through a new lens.
At the end of the day, this is not just about photos. It is about choosing an experience that fits you, feeling confident while you are here, and leaving with something tangible that reminds you how powerful you already are.
*All collections and products are sold separately. ​No images are included with the session with the exception of the mini experience. Full pricing can be found here.

INVESTMENT FAQs
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes. Most clients choose a payment plan, and we will set one up that feels comfortable and doable.
Nothing stressful or confusing.
Is there a minimum investment?
Yes. There is a minimum investment required for all boudoir sessions. This ensures every client receives the full experience and access to high-quality artwork. I am always happy to walk you through pricing and payment options before you book so everything feels clear from the start.
Do I have to decide what I want to buy before my session?
No. You will not choose images or artwork until after you see your photos. Your reveal happens first, and then you decide what feels right for you.
What do I wear to my boudoir session?
You have options. You are welcome to bring pieces you already love, and you will also have access to the client closet and studio sets. Before your session, you will receive guidance to help you choose outfits that fit your style and comfort level.
Is hair and makeup included?
Yes. Professional hair and makeup is included with full boudoir sessions so you can relax and feel taken care of from the moment you arrive.
I’ve never done this before. Is that okay?
More than okay. Most clients have never done a boudoir session before. You will be guided through posing, expressions, and movement the entire time.
When are sessions scheduled?
Boudoir sessions are offered on weekends only. This allows for a relaxed, unhurried experience without feeling rushed.
Will my images be shared online?
Client privacy is taken seriously at AY Artistry & Design. Images are never shared publicly without explicit written permission, and clients are never pressured to allow their photos to be used for marketing.
​
What if I’m nervous or don’t feel confident right now?
That is completely normal. You do not need to feel confident before your session. That is what the experience is for.
